A new ethylidene menthane-based chiral π-allylpalladium complex catalyzes the asymmetric allylation of various imines with allyltributylstannane and 1 equiv. of water to give chiral homoallylamines in good yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction was carried out essentially under neutral conditions and displayed a good transfer of chiral information from the menthane skeleton through the formation of a bis(π-allylpalladium) species. This is the first example of menthane-based chiral bis(π-allylpalladium) catalysis. A menthane-based chiral π-allylpalladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylation of various imines has been developed giving chiral homoallylamines in good yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction displays a good transfer of chiral information from the menthane skeleton through the formation of a bis(π-allylpalladium) complex. Copyright
